Ivan the terrible
Sep. 14th, 2004 08:43 amI'm sending out my prayers, such as they are from an agnostic heathen, to all my friends and their families who are having to deal with this terrible series of hurricanes in the southeast and Caribbean. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tiashome, is your family OK? I really hope so. I saw the footage of Jamaica and it looks horrible there. Everyone be safe!
On a totally unrelated note, is there anyone on my flist or who reads this LJ who's either in the medical field or have been in the medical field, especially in a hospital? I need some fic help with injuries and descriptions and would like to ask you a few questions if you'd be willing. I figure I can easily get away with goofy police and FBI procedures, since the source was just as goofy, but I am a stickler for at least a reasonable amount of accuracy in other things. (you can contact me at gwyn_r at livejournal dot com)
Speaking of e-mail -- I took the offer of a gmail invite and am really disappointed. I can't access it anywhere with firewalls, which means it's useless at work and it didn't come up at my dad's, either. I have other sites that I can't access because of their firewalls, and can only access at home or a friend's computer, but part of the reason I did the gmail was for all-the-time access for a totally fannish account, which my others aren't. I have no trouble with either hotmail or yahoo at any place. I can't even find out where I can write to them to tell them their beta version sucks since I can't get into it. It seems odd to me that both Yahoo and Hotmail can make a site that is accessible even with twitchy firewalls, but gmail cannot. Not so well done, them.
